A thorough and stunning look at The MacLean Collection Asian Art Museum, which consists of more than five thousand objects, from Neolithic times to the present, focused in three media--pottery, bronze, and stone from primarily China and Southeast Asia. A selection of Chinese pottery from the MacLean Collection of Asian art, dating from the Neolithic period (ca. 10, 000-2000 BCE) to the Tang dynasty (618-906), providing insights into the material culture, belief systems, and social development of early to medieval China. Nowhere in the world has such a rich, distinguished, and continuous tradition of pottery production developed as in China. From the Neolithic period (ca. 10, 000-2000 BCE) to the Tang dynasty (618-906), the art of Chinese pottery making has developed as much in response to functional and aesthetic considerations as to technological improvement. The forty-eight objects selected from the MacLean Collection Asian Art Museum represent some of the most important stages of this unparallel tradition when the forms, the artistic styles, and the techniques of pottery making emerged, improved, and sophisticated. They also provide insights into the material culture, belief systems, and social development of early and medieval China. OFFICIAL MUSEUM COLLECTION: An inside look into the rare collection of Asian Art both achived pieces and those currently on display in the museum located in Chicago, Illinois PERFECT FOR ART LOVERS: With enthralling photography and it's sleek hardcover, this book makes an exquisite gift for museum and art lovers everywhere CURATED FOR YOU BY THE BEST: Authored by three of the finest doctors and curators of ancient, modern, and contemporary Chinese art and pottery
